Leadership & Expertise

Gilbert Johnston, CHBME

Chief Operating Officer

Gilbert Johnston serves as Chief Operating Officer at The Valletta Group, where he oversees client engagement, operational strategy, and cross-functional team leadership. He partners with executive leadership and oversees internal teams to deliver scalable performance across a nationwide client base.

Gilbert prioritizes clarity and efficiency in managing complex revenue cycle operations. He identifies opportunities to streamline workflows, implement enabling technologies, and drive automation that reduces friction and strengthens financial outcomes. By collaborating with clients and technology partners, he develops practical, data-driven solutions that align day-to-day execution with broader organizational goals.

Since joining Valletta in 2007, Gilbert has helped guide the firm’s growth from a single-state operation to a national organization, shaping a service model defined by accuracy, efficiency, and long-term client partnership.

“I’d say 90% of getting it right in revenue cycle management is staying organized. It is easy for things to get lost in the shuffle if you haven’t implemented and followed appropriate daily procedures.”

“One of the more satisfying aspects of the job is meeting with clients after they have been using our medical billing services for the first six months. I’m proud that we are frequently thanked for the assistance we provide.”
